There is absolutely no way this movie will ever work because of two letters and a two digit number: PG-13. Whoever puts this out will be forced by the studio to try and make a movie about a repressed Mormon's idea of S&M in terms that will be okay to the teen girl crowd. It will alienate the people expecting more, either in the premise or (I assume, as I wouldn't be caught dead reading it) just flat-out skipping parts of the book, and those that aren't fans will probably take one look at this and think it's extraordinarily bad dreck.

If I'm wrong, and it becomes a R-rated movie, then it won't make the money they think anyway because the teen girl demographic won't be able to go see it. And if it involves less removal of material than I thought, well...wow. That'd make the books even more juvenile and non-S&M related than I thought.

Mugato:frepnog: we couldn't get jessica alba naked in the goddamned Sin City movie and she played a farking stripper.

I know right? WTF? every other panel of that book was faithfully represented in the film and Jessica couldn't make with the boobies?

yeah. i am of the mind that if you are cast to play a stripper, pull your farking tits out or don't take the role. in the comics nancy was topless. i am not saying that jessica's boobs would have made the movie better (arguable i guess) but out of everything that movie got right alba really marred the film.

it isn't that I was just dying to see alba's tits. it was that everything else was so perfect that it pulled me out of the film.
